The Voyages of Doctor Dolittle, won the Newbery medal in 1923. In the Story of Doctor Dolittle, we learn how he went from being a medical doctor for people to a doctor who treats, and talks to, animals. This book would certainly appeal to you when you are at the stage of liking anything and everything about animals. I really enjoyed the style and some of the passages were quite beautifully written. The tone is lightly humorous with everything. The animals each have their own characters, doing and saying things in ways that suit our ways of seeing them. The adventures are amusing and never taken too seriously, even when fending off deadly pirates. I hope these tales encourage dreams, awe, and wanderlust in generations of children to come.
